Powershell Script in SAM

jonsobelscraven

We have a PS script works fine in ISE, harvests some data from a web page regarding remaining days on a licence. we want to use the integer as the statistic value so we can set a warning and critical level in the template.

the issue is we get 'Not Defined' for the statistic output, not sure what we are missing.

$infourl = "http://${NodeDNS}:8989/GetInfo"

[xml]$blob = Invoke-WebRequest -URI $infourl | Select -expand Content

if ($blob) { #check licenses if there was a response from the license service.

$days=99
$daysleft = 99
foreach ($lic in $blob.LicensingService.AvailableLicenses.LicenseType) {

$days = $lic.License.minDaysLeft
foreach ($daybit in $days) {

if ([int]$daybit -lt $daysleft -and [int]$daybit -gt 0) {
$daysleft = $daybit


}
}
}

Write-Host 'Statistic: '$daysleft
}

Have turned of IE first run Wizard in GP, still get not defined.

Any ideas? Tried various combinations to no avail.

Stuff to add:

1) An else with an exit code leading to an error or something, or count the errors and do that in an IF at the end
2) A success Exit code
3) Something that sorts the $days if there's any chance of >10 entries

4) an iteration counter ($i = 0, $i++)
5) Edit to Write-Host "Statistic.$i: $daysleft" or simmilar 
6) A Write-Host "Message: $someusefulcontext"

Rememeber to Test the script in the editor to form the output statistic/message pairs in the application/component
